Pho
Pho is a photo backup and gallery app that syncs mobile camera-roll images to storage chosen by the user. It uploads original-quality photos in the background and displays local and remote images together in a timeline with pinch-to-zoom and full-screen viewing. Listed storage includes SMB, WebDAV, NFS, Google Drive, Baidu Netdisk, and S3-compatible services such as AWS S3, Backblaze B2, Cloudflare R2, and MinIO. The sync engine is built into the app, so Pho says no separate Docker container, database, or reverse proxy is needed. Photos go directly to user-controlled storage rather than through Pho’s servers; the maker also says it has no central database, analytics pipeline, or ads. Files use a date-based directory structure that can be browsed with a file manager. The free tier provides a local gallery and basic cloud sync for personal use. Pro adds AES-256 encryption, custom sync filters, multi-threaded sync, multiple directory structures, theme colors, a Release Space tool, and priority support. The annual Pro plan is $19.99 a year.
